PROPERTY DETAILS

Godesdone Cottage is a Victorian bay-fronted, end-of-terrace property built in the 1870s with Cambridge brick elevations and double-glazed windows beneath a slate roof. The property offers approximately 1,034 sq ft (96.1 sq m) of accommodation across two floors. The house is set back from the road and accessed through an entrance hallway featuring moulded ceiling cornicing, a dado rail, and an archway with original corbels. The original two reception rooms have been combined to create a generous open-plan sitting and dining area, with a wide bay window at the front and a feature gas fireplace with a stone surround. The kitchen includes a comprehensive range of high-gloss white cabinetry and integrated appliances, such as a fridge-freezer, dishwasher, and a five-ring freestanding dual-fuel cooking range, along with a washing machine. There are three spacious double bedrooms, one of which is located on the ground floor with garden views and an en suite shower room—ideal for use as a guest room, accommodation for an older relative, or a private space for a student. The two double bedrooms on the first floor are served by a large family bathroom with a contemporary suite, including an oversized shower. The property is heated by a gas-fired Worcester combi central heating system. Subject to planning consent, the property offers potential for extension to the side of the kitchen to create a larger space, or into the loft for additional bedroom accommodation. The generous, west-facing rear garden features a lawn, attractive well-stocked flower borders, and ample space at the far end for those looking to add a home office, gym, or studio. Godesdone Road falls within a residents' permit parking area and is close to electric vehicle charging points in the nearby Riverside area.

Cambridge has something for everyone with a diverse range of restaurants, shops, business and services from the small independent local companies on Mill Road to the global brand names in the grand arcade. The same can be said for the landmarks and attractions our city has to offer from the Fitzwilliam Museum and  vast collections of antiquities from Ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome, to punting on the River Cam under the mathematical bridge or strolling around Kings Chapel or the stunning Botanical Gardens. Cambridge is a fine place to live with some of the best schools in the country, both independent and public. Addenbrookes, the internationally renowned teaching hospital is here and the historic university speaks for itself. Additionally, with many of the major blue chip, biotechnological and pharmaceutical employers that are based here, it is hard to find a better place to call home.
